Cedar, I have never read a book by Ann Rice. I am afraid of things occult or science fiction or horror movies or anything that is not tethered to the real. Even comics and cartoons frightened me. Even Edgar Allen Poe. My whole life.
Some children and I used to go to Saturday Matinee Movies. The double will was The Fall of the House of Usher, and The Fly. I remember it like it was yesterday. They convinced me that they were comedies. I still remember my fear.
That said, I would love to know Ann Rice's books. It would be special to read them on the train. What is their appeal to you, if you would like to share? Do they frighten you?
Thank you.
